The latest News and Information on Monitoring for Websites, Applications, APIs, Infrastructure, and other technologies.
You have so many options for frontend error monitoring today, and they all do slightly different things. We looked at everyone and did a breakdown of the most important features for frontend, the problems developers run into, end user reviews, and pricing structures to see how the best vendors stack up.
The Grafana LGTM Stack (Loki for logs, Grafana for visualization, Tempo for traces, and Mimir for metrics) offers the freedom and flexibility for monitoring application performance. But we’ve also heard from many of our users and customers that you need a solution that makes it easier and faster to get started with application monitoring.
At Grafana Labs, our mission has always been to help our users and customers understand the behavior of their applications and services. Over the past two years, the biggest needs we’ve heard from our customers have been to make it easier to understand their observability data, to extend observability into the application layer, and to get deeper, contextualized analytics.
Just two months after introducing the public preview of Grafana Beyla, we are excited to announce the general availability of the open source project with the release of Grafana Beyla 1.0 at ObservabilityCON 2023 today. We’ve worked hard in the last two months to stabilize, stress test, and refine the features that were part of the public preview of this open source eBPF auto-instrumentation tool.
As more organizations adopt observability at massive scale, they have also been grappling with rising costs. Over the past 12 months, we have been working on different solutions to help our users better understand and manage their observability stack, not to mention the bills that come with scaling it.
During the opening keynote of ObservabilityCON 2023 in London, we announced a range of new updates to make it easier and faster for the open source observability community to get started and scale their observability stacks.
Wow, can you believe it’s been a year since we announced Cribl Search and redefined the search process for observability and security data? Even though the product is just wrapping up its first year, Cribl Search has achieved unrivaled growth in both user adoption and expansion of product capabilities. Why?
I know, we’re Sentry the error and performance monitoring platform and we catch production issues. But as you (hopefully) saw during our Launch Week announcement, some broken experiences simply won’t throw an exception. So we built a way to detect when your users are slamming their keys on the keyboard in frustration, and to even let them contact you directly when that doesn’t go their way.
